We look at the division of 847371 by 23 
We want to divide 847371 by 23.

Let's proceed to step 1:
23 goes into 8 0 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 8, we get 8.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 8, then repeat: 84 / 23

On to step 2:
23 goes into 84 3 times with a remainder of 15.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 3.0
Subtract 69 from 84 to get 15.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 15, then carry on: 157 / 23

On to step 3:
The number 23 fits into 157 6 times, leaving a remainder of 19.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36.0
If we take 138 away from 157, we end up with 19.
Include the next digit (3) from the dividend after 19, then repeat: 193 / 23

On to step 4:
23 can be fit into 193 8 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 368.0
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 184 from 193.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 97 / 23

On to step 5:
23 goes into 97 4 times with a remainder of 5.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 3684.0
If we take 92 away from 97, we end up with 5.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 5 and continue with: 51 / 23

Step 6:
23 goes into 51 2 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36842.0
If we subtract 46 from 51, we get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 23 fits into 50 2 times, leaving a remainder of 4.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36842.2
Subtract 46 from 50 to get 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

On to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 23, we get 1 with a remainder of 17.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 36842.21
Subtract 23 from 40 to get 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
23 can be fit into 170 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 36842.217
The remainder is 9 after subtracting 161 from 170.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 90, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 10:
23 can be fit into 90 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 21.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36842.2173
If we take 69 away from 90, we end up with 21.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 210, and continue the process.

Step 11:
23 can be fit into 210 9 times, resulting in a remainder of 3.
Write down 9 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 36842.21739
If we take 207 away from 210, we end up with 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Step 12:
30 divided by 23 is 1 with a remainder of 7.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 36842.217391
If we take 23 away from 30, we end up with 7.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 70, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 13:
If we divide 70 by 23, we get 3 and a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 36842.2173913
If we subtract 69 from 70, we get 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Step 14:
If we divide 10 by 23, we get 0 and a remainder of 10.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 36842.2173913
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 36842.2173913 and a remainder of 1e-08.
